STEP FIVE - Arbitration. Within fifteen (15) calendar days of receipt of management's position, the Union may request arbitration by delivering a written notice to the Labor Relations office of its intent to arbitrate the dispute. If the Union does not respond within fifteen (15) calendar days, the issues involved in the grievance will be considered resolved and the matter closed. Within five (5) working days after receipt of the notice of intent to arbitrate, the parties will request the Federal Mediation and Conciliation Service to furnish a list of five (5) arbitrators from the southwest region of the United States from which the arbitrator shall be selected. Such selection shall be accomplished by the Union and the Company striking one (1) name from the list in turn until only one (1) name remains. In recognition of the magnitude of such decisions, arbitration relative to termination grievances shall be expedited whenever possible. Unless mutually agreed to extend the time limitations in writing, these grievances should be arbitrated within six (6) months of the termination date. The arbitrator's decision shall be submitted in writing and shall be final and binding on all parties to this Agreement. Nothing contained in this contract or any part thereof shall affect or apply to the Union in action it may take against the Company for failure to comply with any legally enforceable decision reached through arbitration. The cost of the arbitrator and the cost of necessary expenses required to pay for facilities and recording of the hearing of cases, shall be borne equally by the Company and the Union. The arbitrator shall not have the authority to modify, amend, alter, add to, or subtract from any provision of this Agreement.
